Barking up the right tree: binomial option valuation of investments in steel making
A case study of Metals and Polymers*
Master’s thesis presentation 01/06/2012
Author: Dmytro SerebrennikovSupervisor: Luca Di Corato *www.metipol.com
The object of case study: Metals and Polymers Ltd
• Established in 2008• Alchevsk, Eastern Ukraine • Produces galvanized and polymerized steel• Total capacities – 175 000 tons of output annually• Investment capital (pilot stage) – $72 mln
Future decisions (options) depend on market conjuncture:
• Output prices go up: expansion to 300 000 tons• Investment capital (expansion stage) - $65 mln• Output prices fall / risk of expropriation: abandonment• Assets can be sold at $65 mln
The object of case study: Metals and Polymers Ltd
Research questions:
• 1) How will the options to expand and to abandon affect the value of the factory if both of them are implemented separately and together?
• 2) How will the value of the factory and the values of the embedded options change in response to changes in key variables: rate of corporate tax, discount rate and volatility?
Method
• Positivistic approach: the validity of the numerical model used is tested
• Data collection:
- primary info is derived from financial statements
- it is delivered in a pre-structured form suitable for the theoretical model selected (Excel sheet-integrated)
- interview is arranged to make clear contextual details
• Data analysis: Microsoft Excel
Theoretical framework
• Net Present Value (NPV) analysis
• Option valuation model
• Time series analysis
NPV analysis: present value (PV) of a business
FCF – free cash flow n – number of time periods
r – discount rate t – concrete time period
– rate of growth
NPV analysis: Free Cash Flow (post tax cash flow)
Three discount rates are chosen to plug in the model:
1) r = 6,75% - value of a coupon attached to a default-free governmental bond (EUROBOND-2017)
2) r = 9,5% - offered by the firm’s analysts
3) r = 13% - selected arbitrarily to complete the interval
Rate of growth = 3% - rate of drift for polymerized steel
NPV analysis: discount rate (r) and rate of growth ( )
NPV analysis: extended NPV
Option (in real economy ) – an opportunity to change the course of business in response to market signals
Types of options :
• option to expand
• option to abandon
• option to switch
• option to delay
Option valuation theory: origin
Option (financial instrument) – a right, but not an obligation to buy/sell some amount of stock (shares of a company)
Variables comparison
Option valuation theory: origin
Notation Financial option Real option
S Price of stock Market value of assets
K Exercise (strike) price Value of investment capital
t Expiration time Last time to invest in a project
r Discount rate Discount rate
σ Volatility of stock Volatility of output prices
Two-state assumption: price of stock (asset) moves either up or down

Major conclusions:
Answer to research question 1:• Introduction of options pumps the project’s value up• The more options are embedded, the higher the value of the
project
Answer to research question 2:
Type of variable Tax rate Discount rate Volatility
Changes in variable Lower Higher Lower Higher Lower Higher
PV of project Increase Decrease Increase Decrease No effect No effect
Value of expansion Increase Decrease Increase Decrease Decrease Increase
Value of abandonment Decrease Increase Decrease Increase Decrease Increase
